โ€œHoffman Estatesโ€ is a previously abandoned Chicago area Sears furniture warehouse. The Obama Foundation leased, then re-upped the lease, to use the facility to store all the paper documents from the Obama administration {Location Link}.

The Obama administration told the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) they were going to upload the documents into a digital form for use in the Obama library. The paper documents were, still are, held at the Hoffman Estates warehouse while this digitization process took place. It should be noted, the Obama Foundation has never digitized the records, hence they renewed the warehouse lease.

Contrast against the DOJ-NSD legal position about classified records held in the secure facility of Mar-a-Lago, a 2018 letter {Obama.org pdf here} from the Obama Foundation to the NARA is an example of the two-tiered selective justice system. Within the 2018 letter the Obama team admit to storing both โ€œclassified and unclassifiedโ€ documents at the warehouse: [Page #2, bullet-point 7]

Obviously, there were no raids on Hoffman Estates from the FBI to secure the classified documents. Nor did the DOJ National Security Division trigger a criminal investigation of President Obama for holding documents, particularly classified documents, against the interests of the NARA while they โ€œdigitized them;โ€ a process, which again should be noted, never even began.

Some pictures from the Philadelphia Museum of Art today, not going to lie, didnโ€™t take that many because you easily could have spent your entire day grabbing photos which sort of defeats the purpose of being able to see them live, so here is what felt important enough to break out the phone for.

The Barnes Brief, Weekend of May 29, 2026

BRIEF

I. THE INTRODUCTION
ย 
A. Art of the Dayย 
  • The Battle of Bunker Hill, by early American artist John Trumbull, a battle the British managed to lose while winning. By holding off the British as long as they did, the Americans seized the narrative and strategic victory. Legend grew of a young farmer turned Colonel of the Minute Men, promising to hold the Hill or periosh trying for at least one more night, with the famous phrase echoed: โ€œDonโ€™t Fire Boys Till You See the Whites of Their Eyesโ€, or at least legend would have it. I admit my fondness for the legend with its Sun Tsu style proverbial wisdom, but also for a more direct reason: Colonel Prescott was a great, great granddaddy of mine.ย
